Who knew that our magical mother-daughter trip would end this way…
Bali was all that everyone says it to be, blissful, serene, beautiful, heavenly, therapeutic, undeniably raw, spiritual, godly and a discovery at every part of the island!
We had the most magical trip mother & daughter! We often do these 1-on-1 parent child trips in our family and it benefits the children and it strength our relationships! This year was Bali with my eldest.
Sadly, on the last day in the island of the Gods, I received the devastating news of the passing of my father. It was sudden, unexpected, he simply didn’t wake up! Heart attack!
I questioned God, destiny, karma all of it! My dad was gone but my worries were for my mom! I couldn’t bear to imagine her having held my dad lifeless, trying to reanimate him! The trauma of that image in my mind kept me in worry, I couldn’t leave the island at that time of the night and my flight was the day after!
That morning I went to the Bali temple for prayer, for blessings from the gods and it gave me so much ch inner peace and strength! I realised worrying wasn’t going to change my present! I stopped worrying for those last moments on the island with my daughter and tried to embrace inner peace! In peace was my strength, in accepting what had happened! In accepting that it was in no one’s hand and that fate had its own course!
Bali you will always be remembered for your beauty, nature and spirituality! I don’t won’t to remember you through that sad ending but rather through all the energy, spirituality and beauty you offered my daughter and I during our visit!
